I haven't given a great deal of thought about this because I just learned about gitlab pages.  Right now just having thing https://common-lisp.net/project/ is ok, because cmucl just copies it's web pages to public_html/mirror (or something) and www.cons.org (maybe still?) and www.cmucl.org just rsyncs that directory periodically.

I think cmucl.common-lisp.net.io would be nice as well since that's how I manage my various github pages projects.  It would be convenient I think if my cmucl-www repo could have html pages (via markdown or whatever) automatically get displayed an cmucl-www.common-lisp.io (or something) without me having to do a bit of manual work that I have to do today. (Changes are infrequent now because I'm just a lazy guy.)

Again, I haven't given a lot of thought about this, but on the face of it, it seems nice for people use to github.

But I also understand that this is done by volunteers so I don't definitely don't want to overtax the very generous volunteers working on this!  There's certainly no rush.

(And I noticed a bit ago that c-l.net's gitlab wiki now supports kaTeX in markdown pages which is really great to see!  I wish it were Mathjax instead, but kaTeX is certainly better than none!)

Heh. I noticed recently that gitlab was finally adding project pages like github gh-pages.  I was gong to ask if this was available on c-l.net.  IIRC, these are essentiall static (mostly) html pages for your site so you can host documentation and such.  I'd be interested in this since cmucl hosts its html page elsewhere, and it'a somewhat of a pain to update them.

I'm interested!  And again, thanks for all your hard work on this!

You're welcome.

Just for my clear understanding, since you explicitly reference "github pages": I was planning to map the static content to the "regular" project pages space: https://common-lisp.net/project/*/ . Is that sufficient? Or were you thinking of using your own domain? Or are you looking for something like "https://cmucl.common-lisp.io/" ?

Regards,

Erik.
